"The Age of Adaline" is an American film that stole 50 years of life (the algorithm of logic). A young girl, Adeline, was shocked by lightning after falling into the water after a car accident. Time unexpectedly and miraculously froze at the age of 27. The heartache of her lover's old age was unbearable for Adeline. In order not to be regarded as a monster and a scientific research specimen by the world, she had to keep a secret, left the family since her daughter's high school, and lived in isolation; after more than ten years, a chance encounter with philanthropist Ellis rekindled Adeline life and love - this is a sci-fi romance with a happy ending.
The story is thin and short, but the love is heavy and sad. But for me, the story is not that simple.
Movies that touch the heartstrings have tones and aromas. Emotions and colors come to be seen by the world, and what I see is usually "scent of eroticism". I pondered from it: time - end - lover, these three words, each word can write a wonderful life, time is flowing, the end is vicissitudes, lovers belong to love, the literal translation of the title itself is " Adeline's age", but was translated into a more meaningful "Lovers at the end of time", enough to cause imagination.
The beginning and the end of the picture are developed in a gray tone. This tone is quite familiar to me. It is like the color of dreams I often experience: dense, fantastic, quiet, if you know color, you should know that gray is a mixture of all colors. It runs between black and white, like the human heart. It is always changing and fickle, but it is the most human-like color. This film is full of conflict between love and human nature, so, in my eyes, the name of the film is also gray.
The storyline of the film is blue toned, and blue on a gray background. Among them, what impresses me the most is when Adeline met him, who touched her heartstrings, at the New Year's Eve party. In her heart, Adeline, who lives with a beautiful face and a desolate place, collides with the spirit of love and love. The contradiction is so heart-wrenching and tormenting.
The most distressing thing is the set of shots and dialogues: a mother who is more like a daughter and a daughter who is more like a mother sitting on the sofa, Adeline said: "I'm so tired to escape." Daughter: "Then don't run away... You don't have to be lonely all your life, don't you miss the feeling of your lover, you've been single for too long." Adeline said weakly: "Love without a future feels different. I mean to build the future together and grow old together. Without that, love is... only heartbreak." Blue represents melancholy, Adeline's The eyes are blue, and the eyes are also blue, so my heart is broken into the originally peaceful blue water.
The kind of contradiction of wanting to love but not daring to love, distressed, heartbroken, tortured and abusive.
Adeline Reborn Love comes in a cream shade. From the New Year's party where Ellis met Ellis unexpectedly shortly after the opening, Adeline refused to know each other out of rational indifference; to Ellis deliberately "encountered" a few books Adeline gave her in the library; When walking in the park, this humorous handsome man joked to please Adeline's date invitation after smiling, and Adeline's reason was melted little by little; when it came to the official date, when the warm love for each other had not yet risen to a close lover, His eyes were full of affection and love, as if someone handed you a cappuccino in the winter when you were frozen, with creamy warmth floating on it, enough to thaw your frozen heart. Seeing this, I seem to smell the sweet fragrance of this warm cup of coffee, and touch the softness and longevity of love.
However, Adeline's young love and reborn love were dramatically designed in the conflict of human nature: the young love belongs to the father, and the reborn love belongs to the son. When her son in full bloom brought Adaline to meet her parents at home, the same face appeared in the eyes of Hefa's waning father, but he never expected that the "prospective daughter-in-law" in front of him was the one who left the company back then. One step closer to a lover. What makes people more abusive is when an old man and a young woman are walking at night, they meet under the starry sky by chance, and they are silent and have their own thoughts. On the one hand, the old man travels from the United States to the United Kingdom to meet Adeline in his memories, like an amber love fragment; on the other hand, the young woman is moved by a romance she never knew: the "fiance" told her that his father who was a scientist It was discovered that a comet would return to people after 50 years and was named "Adeline". Seeing this, I seem to smell the fragrance of the wines that have passed through the years. The souls who once loved each other, when love lives in my heart, even though the relationship has been estranged for a long time, the love is always stronger with time, isn't it?
Unparalleled love, erotic fragrance.
Under the dark night, the old man discovered the deadly secret: the love when he was young was fixed on the scar on Adeline's hand. Back then, he used to sew stitches for her bleeding wound by the lake - this scar always accompanied Adeline's body, regardless of time. This scar reveals the relationship: he was on the bench with the engagement ring in his hand, but he didn't wait for her, missing the vows and commitments to spend a lifetime together.
Lingering in the beautiful lies woven by time, after the intoxication of the self is awakened by the cold reality, the rest is to explode, not to explode in human nature, but to fade away quietly in human nature!
That night, Adeline fled. That was her usual method. Once she was seen through or had any clues to be seen through, she would flee quickly. In this life, or the stolen 50 years of floating life, why didn't she spend it in escape? The unknown "fiance" Ellis chased out of the house and drove on the highway to find Adeline's whereabouts. He hoped that he would never give up the beauty. On the way to escape, the young lover that appeared in Adeline's eyes, the love motto of her "fiance"'s father: don't run away, stay! All I can think of is Adeline's daughter's kind advice to her mother, "then don't run away...you don't have to be lonely all your life..." The inner struggle and confusion, and finally the desire for freedom and love and being loved Clear the direction of life. The story is always tortuous, and at this point, the director can't stand idly by about another possible love affair. So, at the end of the story, the woman who was dragging a car was thrown into the wetlands on the side of the road by an unexpected car accident. The scene from 50 years ago was repeated. It never snows in California, but the beginning and the end of the snow started dramatically. , seems to indicate a reincarnation; in the freezing humidity, electric shock rescued Adeline; at this time, a meteor swept across the sky, fell to the world, and returned together. When Adeline revealed the reason for her departure to her fiancé Ellis, the man and the woman decided to forget the time and let a romantic story have a chance to repeat itself.
Stories are stories after all, and the world is still the world.
In addition to erotic fragrance, the eternal love, I think of other things, human beings, not related to the wind and moon.
Going back to the question I asked at the beginning - how would you interpret it if you were stealing for 50 years?
I think a lot of people want to live forever and look forever, especially women. In the movie, when the graceful young mother and the fat and bloated old daughter appeared at the party at the same time, Ellis naturally chose this frozen-age mother; when Li Yannian danced with Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, he sang "There are beautiful women in the north, and their graceful appearance is unparalleled." , Slim, and looking back, Mrs. Li, who was introduced, resolutely refused to meet the king when she was terminally ill, so that she knew the power of a woman's face - "Those who serve others with beauty, lose their love and loose their love. The reason why Your Majesty can still come to see me is precisely because of the beautiful appearance in my life. Now if I see my appearance damaged and the color is wrong, I will definitely hate and abandon me, how can I remember the mercy and accept me? Where's my brother!"
There is the love of guarding the appearance, and of course there is also the love of Bi Jinjian. Yeats, the Irish poet who won the Nobel Prize in Literature, "When You Are Old" is the love of his life, whether in language or in life:
When you are old and grey and full of sleep, When you are old, gray and sleepy,
And nodding by the fire, take down this book,
and slowly read, and dream of the soft look,
your eyes had once, and of their shadows deep;
How many loved your moments of glad grace,
And loved your beauty with love false or true,
But one man loved the pilgrim Soul in you that loved your pilgrim heart,
And loved the sorrows of your changing face;
Because of a secret that is different from ordinary people, Adeline kept moving, unable to live with her family, living in no fixed place, and being homeless; even her non-human companion, the dog, has experienced the course of ordinary life. , Abandoned her, these sorrows made the white-haired man face the black-haired man to take a step ahead of the gradual aging, what is the relationship between people after passing away?
If Adeline doesn't have the looks and temperament of Frozen Age, what can she use to touch Ellis' heart? Young and handsome, will he be desperate to fall in love with a woman with white hair and an old-fashioned age?
If your former lover is your son's lover, as a father, can you be tolerant and accepting?
If you were Adeline, if you were Ellis, if you were this father, how would you face and interpret life after 50 years of stolen life?
Falling in love with the right person at the wrong time is a lifetime of helplessness. If the time is out of sync, can your love endure forever?
"Ten years of life and death are boundless. I don't think about it. I will never forget it. There is a lonely grave for thousands of miles, and there is no place to talk. There are no words, only a thousand lines of tears. It is expected that the heart will be broken every year, and the moonlit night will be short of Matsuoka." Borrowing a poem by Su Dongpo, "Jiangchengzi", he left a sigh: If the time is synchronized, even if Cangshan is already dusk, I would still like to float. not old.
